;
; AMI - The Asterisk Manager Interface
;
; Third party application call management support and PBX event supervision
;
; This configuration file is read every time someone logs in
;
; Use the “manager list commands” at the CLI to list available manager commands
; and their authorization levels.
;
; “manager show command ” will show a help text.
;
;
; ---------------------------- SECURITY NOTE -------------------------------
; Note that you should not enable the AMI on a public IP address. If needed,
; block this TCP port with iptables (or another FW software) and reach it
; with IPsec, SSH, or SSL vpn tunnel. You can also make the manager
; interface available over http if Asterisk’s http server is enabled in
; http.conf and if both “enabled” and “webenabled” are set to yes in
; this file. Both default to no. httptimeout provides the maximum
; timeout in seconds before a web based session is discarded. The
; default is 60 seconds.
;
[general]
displaysystemname = yes
enabled = yes
;webenabled = yes
port = 5038

;httptimeout = 60
; a) httptimeout sets the Max-Age of the http cookie
; b) httptimeout is the amount of time the webserver waits
; on a action=waitevent request (actually its httptimeout-10)
; c) httptimeout is also the amount of time the webserver keeps
; a http session alive after completing a successful action

bindaddr = 127.0.0.1 ; Local interface only!
;bindaddr = 0.0.0.0 ; Not secure
;
;displayconnects = yes
;
; Add a Unix epoch timestamp to events (not action responses)
;
;timestampevents = yes

This problem is almost always because one left out the step of .htpasswd or did it wrong.

3

Your username in the Allmon/Supermon config file is incorrect. Based on what you’re showing for your manager file, the username should be admin instead of vk4dcm.

4

Changed that still logging in now as admin still Could not connect to Asterisk Manager.

5

Fixed I had changed the IP host=127.0.0.1:5038 address all good thanks for your help now to get the trigger interface going.

6

.htpasswd is for logging into supermon not supermon logginginto allstar that is done thru the manager.conf file

7

ctrl F5 your browser to refresh the data.

This password must match what is set in /etc/asterisk/manager.conf for the user
and be sure the port equals that which you describe in your file.

This is the most common issues.
